Broxi 11,484 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Really happy with this. For all the problems in the team, Wes isn't one of them, very good keeper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the fucking point, according to our great leader he has all the shortfall covered we have a wonga loan in place, but we still sell our best striker.

Plus finding players at 1mill that you sell in 8 months for 10mill isn’t easy or every cunt would be at it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get say £6m of it though and another £7/8m from season tickets plus whatever we make from selling the dross we could potentially have a serious amount to spend(at this level anyway). If we end up with £12-£15m to spend we could sign 3/4 players of real quality to improve us. Big if spending the money wisely obviously.

The Ghost 431 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I think this is a good move. I believe he’s gained us many more points than he’s cost us. He’s pretty solid and reliable just now, with the odd wobble admittedly, but is one of the best keepers in Scotland just now and has scope for considerable improvement with experience and a stronger defence to support him.

To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Wes is a decent keeper so no qualms about him getting a longer contract. A keeper who collects every cross, stops every shot, deflection, header, etc like Buffon is what we really need though. Oh wait he cost his side 2 goals during the week. With a good, solid defence in front of him and a commanding centre half barking out orders, Wes would be better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moody Blue 9,358 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I think he's bang average and thought he'd gotten a new contract last summer (unless I'm wrong). When he's given a pass back, he gives me the fear and is beaten from distance far too easily. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
